Vice President Kamala Harris has made history by raising over $81 million in a single day, surpassing previous records in US presidential campaign fundraising.
Gatekeepers News reports that this significant influx of support comes on the heels of President Joe Biden’s surprise withdrawal from the presidential race.
The donations, which include contributions from hundreds of thousands of first-time donors, signal a renewed sense of hope for the Democratic Party.
Harris’s campaign has not yet been officially nominated, but polls indicate she is the frontrunner for the Democratic ticket.
Following Biden’s exit, he endorsed Harris and urged Americans to support her. Harris has pledged to win the nomination and earn the trust of her fellow Democrats.
This fundraising milestone surpasses previous records, including former President Donald Trump’s $50 million raised in 24 hours after his felony conviction.
It also exceeds the $38 million gathered by Biden in four days after his debate performance against Trump.
